Doc Roi,

Yes Im based in QC. Im not really sure if I can help you setting up your HT, I mean Im just a newbie compared to the likes of Sir Matzer, Sir Ricky, Sir Munskie, etc.

Then again, you guys are more than welcome to check it out in person. Kaso pag nakarecover na ako, bagong kasal eh hehe :P

Very nice setup! just a suggestion though, why dont you try raising your lcr600 to the same level as your 602's tweeter? it might give you better panning effects :D

Thanks! Secret :-X  ;)



Indeed it looks family to Munskie's gears hehe.  In fact, we have another thing in common, I just got married this year  (June 25). Im sure pareho rin kami ng taste sa babae, maganda, mabait, and ofcors, understanding!

Im sure, pareho rin kami ng excuse kung may bago tayong gears na uwi..."Honey Baby/Labs/Abay/Darling, para din sa ikasasaya mo yan! Gusto mo ba sa labas kami "manood" ng barkada?" Okay lang sa akin kung okay lang din sa yo yun!"  :-*

Thanks! Will keep your suggestion in mind, actually Im still in the process of looking for an A/V rack with the right height.

Great choice of gears bro!!!  (ahem, ahem..hehehe) :o :o   1.5 years into the hobby but wow!!!  sabi nga ni ricky, big time gears...esp the ROTEL power amp  8) 8).  tapos marami pa gears darating!!!  hehehe parang pasko ah. ;D ;D

bro, im glad i saw that hdmi repeater.  you did ur research, coz maximum length before signal degradation is 5 meters.
try to play with the positioning of the absorbers.  ive posted a link in san mig's thread that is quite useful.  you can use the mirror technique.

congrats !!bagong sakal, este kasal ka pala.  Malaki rin ba kamao ni misis?  ;D ;D  mukhang binuhos na rin ah....... welcome to the club bro   ;D ;D

Naku, when I was reading this thread and nakita ko yung Denon plus Rotels na bi-amped, ang naisip ko "Ano kaya feeling ni munskie while reading this thread???  siguro gumugulong na yan sa SARS. LOL.

Calling pareng munskie  ;D

Congrats Boss_dibidee!

Impressive gears indeed!

Try Sabre Crescendus A rack, its got adjustable layers for your center speaker's height  :)

Post by: Munskie on Jul 26, 2006 at 11:26 AM
bro, namangha ako, lahat na inisip ko upgrades noon, nakita ko sa set-up nato...especially the rotel amp.  yeah, the venture to a power amp has been playing on my mind.  Intrigue ako sa "clean power".  but am also thinking about  my room size and WAF.  Patay tayo dyan!!! hehehe  Papa nako sa October... ;D ;D

kaya Boss dibidee...I hope you're really contented na sa set-up mo.  Coz if ur here in PinoyDVD, may the SARS Force be with you to resist all the temptations.   ;D ;D

Matatagalan pa siguro. Baka pag mainstream na HD-DVD saka Blu-Ray. Better yet, pag single format na lang sila (yeah right  :'()

Unless ofcourse regaluhan ako ni misis ng Sony VPL-VW100 (RUBY) projector saka Denon 3930 multiplayer. Ha! I wish..... :P

The time has come.......

to say goodbye to my original HT setup (bedroom setup). Ive already finished placing them in their original boxes since
the mrs. and I find it impractical to maintain two setups now that the blue lair is up and running. No regrets however, since I know my dad, the lucky recipient,  will have a great time with his "new" toys.  Ive decided to retain the Panny plasma for gaming and will probably move it in the dedicated HT room. Meanwhile, I promise to get him his own Panny PJ in exchange.

I'll try to convince him to post his own HT setup one of these days.  Till then.....

Wow Boss, hindi lang pala wallet ang malaki syo kung di pati ang puso ;) You remind me of my friend KATO na supportive din sa dad nya :D You made the right decision, its not practical to maintain 2 set-ups specially if you can use the other one to make your DAD happy and proud ;) mabuhay ka pare and more blessings to come :D

Actually Im just returning the favor. Without my parents' support and sound advices, baka hangang ngayon hindi pa rin umaangat ang maliit kong negosyo ;D. It's my own little way of saying..time for you to retire, nood ka na lang ng dibidee! Hehe
